They all have two things in common: they can be spread only by the touch of an infected person, and "touch" includes breath, -- indeed "by touch" is the meaning of both infectious and contagious; and they can all be prevented by the strictest cleanness, or killed by various poisons known as germicides ❋ Woods Hutchinson (1896)
Found in many deodorizers, disinfectants and germicides; EPA classifies as a probable human carcinogen. ❋ Unknown (2009)
Last week the CDC recommended these waterless germicides even in hospitals. ❋ Unknown (2007)
Disinfectants and germicides have been used by the gallon, and still I don't feel safe. ❋ Unknown (2003)
But you pass the word that I expect to smell perfume, not germicides. ❋ Heinlein, Robert A. (1973)
It has not proved an easy task to discover drugs which will have any value as germicides when used in quantities so small as to produce no injurious effect on the body. ❋ Unknown (N/A)
Sometimes such a bacterial affection may be localized in places where it can be specially treated, as in the case of an attack on a dermal gland, and in these cases some of the germicides have proved to be of much value. ❋ Unknown (N/A)
There are also numerous varieties of commercial disinfectants now in popular use, such as Platt's chlorides, bromo-chloral, sanitas, etc., which have proved efficient germicides. ❋ Albert F. Blaisdell (N/A)
This subject of poisons assumes nowadays great importance, as it is a common custom to keep about stables, workshops, bathrooms, and living rooms generally a more or less formidable array of germicides, disinfectants, horse-liniments, insect-poisons, and other preparations of ❋ Albert F. Blaisdell (N/A)
Probably the modern employment of carbolic acid, and its various combinations -- all derived from tar -- for neutralising the septic elements of disease, and for acting as germicides, was unknowingly forestalled by the sagacious Right Reverend Lord Bishop of Cloyne, in his _Philosophical Reflections and Inquiries concerning the virtues of Tar Water_, two centuries ago, when the cup which ❋ William Thomas Fernie (N/A)
In producing, therefore, a disinfecting soap, being debarred from using the metallic germicides, we are fortunate in the possession of a number of efficient agents, organic in character, which may be used without interference in soaps. ❋ Various (N/A)
By inoculation with dead bacteria (i. e., bacteria killed by heat; the action of ultra-violet rays, of chemical germicides, or by autolysis). ❋ Unknown (N/A)
Methods have already been detailed (page 310) for the purpose of studying the vital resistance offered by micro-organisms to the lethal effect of germicides. ❋ Unknown (N/A)
No really well informed person has believed for a long time that carbolic alcohol will destroy the cholera poison; but many fully and correctly believe that real germicides will. ❋ Various (N/A)
The introduction of germicides into the water of the test tube prevented the development of adventitious organic life, but at the same time seemed to interfere with normal cell activity at the junction of stock and scion. ❋ Unknown (N/A)
Most of these germicides are, unfortunately, poisonous to us as well; for, as you will remember, our bodies are made up of masses of tiny animal cells, not unlike the animal germs. ❋ Woods Hutchinson (1896)
Most of the germicides, therefore, have to be used against germs while they are outside of our bodies. ❋ Woods Hutchinson (1896)
He accordingly saw to it that every case of tonsillitis, of cold in the head, or sore throat was vigorously treated with local germicides and with intestinal antiseptics and laxatives, until it was completely cured; with the result that in less than a year he succeeded in lowering the percentage of cases of rheumatism per company nearly sixty per cent. ❋ Woods Hutchinson (1896)
Certain combinations of these elements are among the most powerful antiseptics and germicides. ❋ Henry Lindlahr (1893)
